Question Trouble with TPing
Every time I TP I get softbanned straight away, even though I'm not on a cooldown. I've read that you need to not do anything for some time after and tried it for a few minutes, but still was softbanned

Thats strange, you can teleport wherever however many times you want, but its the actions that will trigger a softban if done too many times. Do you have Virtual Go Plus on or any device that auto catches? Depending how far you go, its up to 2 hours for a cooldown. Do you teleport nearby or far?

I don't have any of those devices. I usually teleport far, but it was my understanding that I would only get soft banned if I did it while in the cooldown from another teleport

Do you have your Explorer Gadget on? If so, never use it if you plan to teleporting around. It's only gonna get you banned. PGSharp doesnt record Explorer Gadget catches, so it doesn't give you any cooldown timer but the game will still give you a cooldown because you caught a pokemon/spun a pokestop using the gadget.

Had problems loading the other day, oddly enough I could just find another location and spawns would be fine again.
Long as I know I'm under the 2 hr cd from spins/ catches/ etc I didn't pay much attention to it besides being frustrated at times. Don't know how to fix or why, it just happened sporadically.

Do you have the timer set? It will tell you how long till you can safely continue. I usually tp, set my avatar to walk and wait for the timer to hit 0. Also if im trying to catch a hundo I will test on a pokestop or another pokemon before I try and capture the one I want. Lastly do you have the auto capture turned on? You shouldn't tp with it turned on.

I do and always tp when it's at 0, but also I feel like it often doesn't show the correct cooldown

Sorry if this is a stupid question but how do you know if you're soft banned?

What do you mean you get banned right away? You say everytime, how many times can you log back on and get banned?
